If anything, the fact that 254 can possess all 3 of their alliances starting balls at once is the real advantage here. Who cares if they score them? Just not having to chase one or two down for the first 20 seconds of the match is enough of an advantage.
Wait, if someone does manage to block their auto or they just miss somehow, wouldn't that wicked backspin they have on the ball cause it to roll to the opponents side of the field?
